WESTAWAYS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WESTAWAYS sales from June 2015 and May 2021 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the June 2015 sale was for 204% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 204% above the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 220% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 220% above the HPI.
